Bert Stedman (born March 6, 1956) is aRepublican member of theAlaska Senate. A fourth generation Alaskan, he was born inAnchorage and spent his childhood betweenPetersburg andSitka. He was appointed byGovernor Frank Murkowski in November 2003[1] to the Alaska Senate. Stedman currently represents many communities inSoutheast Alaska, includingKetchikan,Sitka,Petersburg,Wrangell, andYakutat.
Stedman co-chaired the Senate Finance Committee for six years from 2007 to 2012, and again in 2019.
